Health & Safety Manager – Construction / M&E Projects

London | £60,000 + Excellent Benefits + Travel Expenses Covered

We’re working with a well-established specialist engineering business delivering complex construction and building services projects across London. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Health & Safety Manager who enjoys a practical, hands-on role with genuine autonomy and the chance to make a visible impact.

This is not a heavily corporate, policy-writing position. Instead, we’re looking for someone who can work closely with project teams, engineers, contractors, and clients to ensure health & safety standards are embedded across live project environments.

The Role

As the Health & Safety Manager, you’ll play a key role supporting multiple live construction and engineering projects, acting as the trusted H&S lead across site operations.

Responsibilities will include:

• Conducting regular site inspections and audits
• Supporting project teams with RAMS reviews and compliance
• Attending client pre-start, progress, and coordination meetings
• Ensuring CDM compliance and contractor adherence
• Investigating incidents, near misses, and implementing corrective actions
• Delivering toolbox talks and practical H&S guidance onsite
• Supporting project documentation and compliance requirements
• Working closely with operational leaders to drive continuous improvement

This is a highly autonomous role where your expertise and judgement will be trusted.

What We’re Looking For

We’d love to hear from candidates with:

• Proven Health & Safety experience within M&E
• NEBOSH qualification (General or Construction)
• Valid CSCS card
• Strong knowledge of CDM regulations
• Experience supporting live site operations and contractor management

Highly desirable backgrounds include:

• M&E / building services
• HVAC
• Fit-out / hard FM project delivery
• Engineering project environments

The Opportunity

Working Pattern

• Predominantly site-based across London projects
• Typically, 3–4 days onsite
• 1–2 days office/admin support
• Occasional travel outside London

Why Apply?

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing, specialist business where health & safety is genuinely valued operationally not treated as a box-ticking exercise.

If you’re someone who enjoys being visible onsite, influencing teams positively, and making a real difference across live projects, we’d love to speak with you.
